Chase DeLauter Returns to Guardians Lineup for Series Opener

Cleveland Guardians outfielder Chase DeLauter returned to the starting lineup, batting third and playing right field for Friday's series opener against the Athletics. DeLauter had been held out of action Tuesday and Wednesday against the White Sox after his sprained right wrist flared back up. The 24-year-old boasts a .815 OPS on the season, anchored by 12 doubles, two triples, and 23 walks since the All-Star break.
